This week, we explore the suspicious release of more water project funding for Colorado - this time for the critical Shoshone water rights purchase - after Gov. Jared Polis granted former Mesa County Clerk Tina Peters clemency, the pros and cons of the editorial board endorsing political candidates and the possibility the Sentinel could make a negative endorsement in the Republican primary in Colorado’s gubernatorial race, and the increasing extremism on both ends of the political spectrum and its connection to the “law of group polarization,” as introduced to us by NY Times columnis David French, who addressed a local audience in an event last week hosted by Restore the Balance. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

An examination of Gov. Jared Polis’ decision to commute former Mesa County Clerk Tina Peters’ nine-year sentence, discussing possible reasons for the decision - which many people livid and perplexed - and the ramifications of both the commutation and the act of intercepting a judicial process already in motion, along with the possibility that Peters could ostensibly receive money from the president’s so-called $1.8B “slush fund.” ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.
